Closed Gustav prediction #1 - look at next blog
Posted: (August 27, 2008 07:19 am)
 
I started another blog with prediction as this one got lost in all the other blogs.  Check out the new one here Let’s have some fun and see whose prediction can come closest to where Gustav 08 will make landfall in the US. From looking over past hurricanes I see Gustav’s track very similar to Galveston 1900 (made landfall on Sept 8 1900) and also Claudette of 79 (Grand Isle Louisiana). Look back at these tracks and it looks pretty scary. I would love to see the Gulf Coast spared as this guy looks like he will become very angry as soon as he hits open waters again. Predict your date, location, and which category you think. No prizes except a pat on the back and that a boy (or girl). I know we are still at least a week away but this is what makes it fun.
 
My prediction is in or around Galveston on September 2 at a Cat 4.


(This is the third time I am trying to post this so sorry if there were any duplicate post. - Use this one as your official prediction)

seems to shy away from what some models are predicting. I think this hits the Texas/Louisiana border on Sep 3.

The new eye of Gustav makes this an interesting storm. Throw Hanna in the mix and the retrograding LOW off New England and oh my this could be a challenge. My call is HOUMA LA as a high CAT 3 on Sept 2.
